Abstract
The Mulvehill Residence is located on a downward sloping lot, and the main building of the residence was constructed on the flat portion of the parcel in 1925. The structure has a slab-on-grade foundation, wood shingle with notched edge siding, and a multi-hip roof with exposed eaves. The main features of the structure include the large entry patio, original fireplace, arched hallways, and multi-lite windows with decorative wood frames. The Mulvehill Residence is significant for its development as part of the Dowsett Tract, one of the early residential areas just outside of downtown Honolulu. In addition, the structure is significant for its distinctive architectural characteristics and represents the work of architect Robert Gaylor Miller.
